Switching the appliance off
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.
Cleaning the appliance
! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such as
stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents
or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch
the surface beyond repair.
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
• Clean the glass part of the oven door using a
sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then
dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough
abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these
could scratch the surface and cause the glass to
crack.
• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts
and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a
sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water
and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the
removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse
and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or
corrosive substances.
• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned
after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot
water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with a
soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.
• The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
• Dirt and grease should be removed from the control
panel using a non-abrasive sponge or a soft cloth.
• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that
has been left on the surface for a long time, or by
aggressive detergents containing phosphorus.
After cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Any
remaining drops of water should also be dried.
Inspecting the oven seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the
seals are damaged, please contact your nearest After-
sales Service Centre. We recommend that the oven is
not used until the seals have been replaced.
Replacing the oven light bulb
1. After disconnecting the
oven from the electricity mains,
remove the glass lid covering
the lamp socket (see fi gure).
2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one:
voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W,
cap E 14.
3. Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the
electricity supply.
Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for
example, products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues
and ovens), stain removers, anti-rust products, powder
detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may
scratch the surface beyond repair.
• It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a
damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
• If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special
glass ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and
dry thoroughly.
• To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable
scraper (this is not supplied with the appliance).
Remove spills as soon as possible, without waiting
for the appliance to cool, to avoid residues forming
crusty deposits. You can obtain excellent results
by using a rustproof steel wire sponge - specifically
designed for glass ceramic surfaces - soaked in
soapy water.
• If plastic or sugary substances have accidentally
been melted on the hob, remove them immediately
with the scraper, while the surface is still hot.
• Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with
a special protective maintenance product: the
invisible film left by this product protects the surface
from drips during cooking. This maintenance should
be carried out while the appliance is warm (not hot)
or cold.
• Always remember to rinse the appliance well with
clean water and dry it thoroughly: residues can
become encrusted during subsequent cooking
processes.
